Finally solved this bug problem by copying events from old track to a new track (so far I've only 4 tracks, so not too tedious), and thereafter deleting the old tracks. Phew!

Thanks, will try out as advised and see how it goes.

So strange and frustrating! The following were the various permutations of what I did (and the outcomes): 1. I first deleted the volume envelope as you've illustrated. So indeed the first Event (Shape) was no longer there thereafter. But despite having saved it, the playback continues to meddle with my Part 1 Volume on my synth! 2. So what I did was to insert a fresh new MIDI track (I didn't even dare to Duplicate Track in case some hidden stuff were copied automatically and unknowingly); followed by copying and pasting the Events over to it. Then I deleted my original MIDI track. Thought problem solved, but no! Still moving my Part 1 Volume! 3. I then deleted the track playing my Channel 1/Part 1 sound (i.e. violin), leaving only other Parts/Channels of Piano and Cello there. But to my horror, even playing back these tracks (without the Violin on Channel 1/Part 1 at all) will also change the volume of my Part 1 Violin! 4. I then deleted ALL tracks (of course I backed-up it first). Then started recording the Part 1/Channel 1/Track 1 Violin again. ONLY THEN it doesn't meddle with my Volume Control! But of course nobody will want to RE-ARRANGE everything from scratch again! Any further advice?

Thanks so much!

John, can I email my Cakewalk file privately and you see if you can help me delete this volume shape event? I really can't no matter what.

The new free downloadable Cakewalk - does it contain Events List? Cos I remember the entry levels of Sonar Home Studio can only display Piano Rolls but not Events List.

Oh yes, there is one event at the top. But no matter how I tried deleting it (even with Delete Special), it can't be deleted!

I've been using Sonar Artist for a while and it has been serving me well. I'm been recording MIDI notes via my external syn Yamaha Motif Xf7. In the past, the software doesn't intervene/interfere with the volume setting of my syn. But I think I must have accidentally pressed or enabled something I ain't too sure about, that now forever whenever I playback the MIDI recorded track, my Syn's volume (of Channel 1) is changed (by Sonar Artist). Thus everytime during playback I need to manually change Channel 1's volume back to the correct level. Anyway to disable Sonar Artist to change the volume control at my syn?

Thanks to both! However, I'm now only able to choose the Snap to Grid function to be of the most "Extreme" Intensity so that each movement on the Piano Roll is now on multiplies of 120 ticks. Despite changing all "nudge 1" to "nudge 3" to the assignment of "musical time" of "1/8 triplet", I still can't move the notes on Piano Roll to 1/8 triplets (i.e. multiples of 320 ticks. Is there anything I'm missing?

When using Sonar Artist and having recorded some MIDI notes, I go to the Piano Roll page. When using the Move Tool to drag and move the notes to the correct Start Times (ST), I realise it is a refined movement of every exact movement of ticks! Is there anyway I can configure or set the movement of the drag to be say in the multiples of 120 ticks? In other words, I want it to be it is although I'm dragging the note in a "quantised" way, or akin to the Snap to Grid function in Microsoft PowerPoint (when moving objects in big standard steps).

It works now, thanks to all!

In the past when I was using Cakewalk 2 (and then later Cakewalk Home Studio 6), when after playing and recording say a violin solo MIDI track on only the Verse section, I was able to continue recording on the same track by playing the Chorus section while still being able to hear the earlier recorded violin solo (playing the Verse section). But now that I'm using Sonar Artist, during the recording, the track is muted, so I can't hear the earlier recorded violin! How do I disable the auto-muting while attempting to continue recording on the same track? Sometimes I have some missing notes which I wish to add, thus it doesn't make sense for such a muting to occur! Thus now my interim solution is to record it on ANOTHER track, and later performing a manual merger by copying and pasting events from Track 2 in to Track 1, which is extremely cumbersome and inefficient. Please help, thanks!
